Trigger GitHub Actions with enriched deployment data from Edgenivo

Erika Rowland, Tom Knickman

You can now trigger GitHub Actions workflows in response to Edgenivo deployment events with enriched data using repository_dispatch events. These events are sent from Edgenivo to GitHub, enabling more flexible, cost-efficient CI workflows, and easier end-to-end testing for Edgenivo deployments.

Previously, we recommended using deployment_status events, but these payloads were limited and required extra parsing or investigation to understand what changed.

With repository_dispatch, Edgenivo sends custom JSON payloads with full deployment context—allowing you to reduce Github Actions overhead and streamline your CI pipelines.

We recommend migrating to repository_dispatch for a better experience. deployment_status events will continue to work for backwards compatibility.
